Hopefully, that means The Messiah Worshippers in downtown Cleveland are on the street, doing their usual “thing”, and in the suburbs, the numbers turn out to offset all the Fraud mail-in and absentee ballots the Dem’s always have there. Cleveland is a mecca for the welfare voters.

Don’t be complacent. Everybody VOTE!

Based on what I saw at the polling place [SoCal] the Democrats are out in force.

43% turnout in a mid term election year is actually on the high side.

normal mid-term turnout is between 36-40%. Anything over 40% is considered high turnout.

However, posting as a representative sample of Cleveland-area Freepers, we already voted by absentee ballot.

Republicans vote in the midterms, the Democrat lumpenprolietariat don't. The Dems can consider themselves PWNED this election!

Here in Arlington, VA, when I went there was basically nobody there, which would seem to bode really well for republicans.

However, I've read others who have said that turnout seemed surprisingly low in more conservative areas as well. This could just be a low turnout midterm in general.

GOTV! I’m still calling and working a polling place later. Dim turnout is fairly high here in N. TEXAS.

I was told by an Ohio Freeper no longer with us that if Cuyahoga County Democrats sit on their hands, it’s a Republican victory!

If they could somehow remove Cuyahoga County from Ohio, Ohio would be a solid red state most of the time. Not a swing state.

Been driving thru inner city Toledo all AM till 1:00.

No lines. No crowds. No sign of much voting going on.

Suburbs?

Full parking lots.

“Not That Individual Turnout Anecdotes Tell Us That Much, But . . .
November 2, 2010 10:27 A.M.
By Jim Geraghty

A few more turnout reports, this time focusing on the key districts . . .

South Carolina:

“I live in SC Congressional District 5 and wanted to let you know that turnout in my precinct was extremely heavy this morning–the most I can recall for a mid-term. Unless the loyal [Democrat John] Spratt base in the more rural precincts of the District are turning out in equal or better numbers, this should be good news for [Republican Mick] Mulvaney.”

Pennsylvania:

“When I voted this morning before work (~8:30 am), the poll worker I spoke to said they were running ahead of turnout from the last presidential election. I live in Peters Twp, PA, part of Tim Murphy’s district, which is pretty heavily Republican, so that should bode well for Pat Toomey and Tom Corbett.”

“I know you probably don’t want 1,629 meaningless anecdotal e-mails about turnout, but I am in a Republican leaning area of the PA-7 district (Sestak’s old seat) and voted at about 8:25 AM at my polling place. I was the only one there when I got there, and still the only one there when I left. A lady was walking in when I was pulling out of the parking lot though. I really do not have anything to compare it to, since I have never voted there before. But I did not think it was a good sign that I was the only one there (besides workers and people handing out voting guides). On the other hand, this polling place was clearly not expecting much of a turnout since they only had two voting machines in the whole room.”

Louisiana:

I have my doubts about the percentages here, but a reader submits, “Joseph Cao’s chances just went up from about 30% to over 50%. It’s raining across much of south Louisiana right now and the forecast calls for thunderstorms all afternoon and evening in New Orleans.”

In other words, the blacks aren’t voting several times each as usual. Maybe the walking around money isn’t there. Maybe the bus broke down.

Most people probably already know that Obama, Biden, and Strickland spoke to a half empty arena in downtown Cleveland on Sunday.

The Shaw HS band performed and later led a bunch of people to the early voting office. Leaving aside the question of whether or not a public school band should be doing this, it was appropriate. The Dems are going to get spanked like my alma mater Maple Heights Mustangs spanked Shaw. >:)
